A Colder War

Another tale read electronically while on vacation. Appropriately enough, it was read while Tropical Storm Ernesto was making his appearance, adding to the atmosphere of the tale!

This story is available in several places online as well as in at least one collection by Charles Stross. It's a pretty creepy tale that crosses the Cold War of our reality with the cold terrors of H.P. Lovecraft and his tales of the Cthulhu Mythos. You'll lose a couple of SAN points with this one, so be warned!

Counts as one (1) story in the 2006 Short Story Project.
